i was awestruck at the millions of stars in the sky. i remember thinking "WOW! its been months since i have seen actual stars in the sky!"
i consider myself fortunate to live where i do, in a small rural Texas town... on a good, still, clear night the stars dominate the sky. venture out to west Texas and you can see the band of the milky way with the naked eye I'm told.

Do you remember for several years, when I asked about airfields, in northern Texas, there were amazing views.
